    Solarized/Driven (2001)-follow up to their debut, Neanderthal Speedway-continues the Monster Magneticism with Dave Wyndorf himself providing his endorsement. They moved on from the famed Man's Ruin stoner label which probably was defunct by 2001 to  Meteor City. 
    Frontman Jim Hogan, handles vocals, guitar and all the songwriting. Looks like he and the female drummer played in a band with several of the MM guys.  I'd say relative to the debut, Hogan cleaned up their sound a little. It still cranks up the fuzz but isn't quite the sludgey, aggressive blur that makes Neandrathal Speedway so much fun, hence, feels a little more typical for the genre, less raw, but with greater clarity and perhaps sharper songwriting. They bring in some southern fried grease (think COC) to the affair so much so that listening in my car, I started wiping my hands on my pants. 
    The cover looks ripped out of Fu Manchu's playbook and hey, the Fu were instrumental to creating the visual aesthetic for stoner rock, such that is. I dig the slacker gen X stoner philosophizing of some of Hogans lyrics, too. Dig the ride, man.

    I most certainly do! Ramones were the best American pure rock & roll band ever afaic. We take them for granted now, but Johnny Ramone while an asshole personally, was a fucking genius on his $50 guitar. No one had heard riffing like that before 1976. But of course it's the shredders like Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhodes who get all the accolades. 
    There ya go big guy, I can account for my taste, can you account for yours?
     
    The Ramones - It's Alive! The legendary concert was held at the Rainbow Theatre in Finsbury Park, London, on December 31st, 1977. Rock music doesn't get any better than this! Timeless.

    Morningrise was where I discovered Opeth. Love it to pieces, but BWP is their pinnacle which extends through the twins of Deliverance and Damnation. @markm, id hesitate to reconsider your back catalog rule with any other band, but Opeth is different. Everything they did from the first album through Ghost Reveries is worth your time. My Arms and Orchid both have some real gems. The Baying of the Hounds, Face of Melinda, The Moor... just so many great tunes.

    Ya know, I was thinking you might have a soft spot for those Jersey Monster Magnet indebted stoners being from your neck of the Northeast generally, but wasn't sure if it would be sufficiently punkish enough as I know that's your preference with the genre. For some reason, I never got into Unida, not sure why. I should give them some ear time.
    Solarized stood along bands with less name reco than Kyuss/Fu/Magnet in my listening like band like Nebula, Sons of Otis, Orange Goblin, etc. But they have that great heavy, skuzz factor. Speaking of punk influence, following that split you posted of Nebula. I definitely enjoy me some Nebular like To the Center that has a punchy heavy psyche meets Stooges vibe, and in a decidedly punkier vein. I still go back to this from time to time :
